Excerpt

Kathleen Parker wrote in the Sunday Oklahoman, July 25, 1999: “Now is the time for all good fathers to come to the aid of the family.

“Hurry; your days are numbered. If you happen to be a heterosexual male (further doomed by Caucasian pigmentation), your days are already over, according to a cover article in the June issue of American Psychologist, published by the American Psychological Association (apa).

“In their article—‘Deconstruction of the Essential Father’—researchers Louise B. Silverstein and Carl F. Auerbach challenge one of the core institutions of our culture—fatherhood. More or less, fathers, as we’ve known and loved them, are obsolete.

“The article makes numerous breathtaking assertions, but basically the researchers say that:

“—Fathers aren’t essential to the well-being of children.

“—Gay, lesbian and single parents are as good as any other.

“—Heterosexual marriage isn’t necessary to produce healthy, well-adjusted children” (emphasis mine throughout).

I agree wholeheartedly with Kathleen Parker’s condemnation of the apa article, except for one statement. She called fatherhood “one of the core institutions of our culture.” I want to show you why it is the core institution of our society!

The goal of this conspiracy is to rip apart the family. And if you believe in the biblical family, the father is the head (1 Corinthians 11:3). So he becomes the main target. Yet the conspiracy goes much deeper than that.
